      Mr. Gobena Bendo - Ethiopian Landrace [washed] — Ethiopia

      Mr. Gobena Bendo is a 65-year-old farmer who has spent his whole life producing coffee. He inherited 10-hectares of land from his father and hopes to pass it on to his children, who still live in the same village.

      Mr. Gobena produces 700- 800 kg of coffee per hectare, & also grows food on the farm to meet the family’s annual food needs. He employs two part-time workers, in addition to the help he receives from his adult children, who live nearby.

      This lot is Ethiopia Landrace. Ethiopia has thousands of indigenous coffee varieties. We've seen figures of between 6-10000. Some of these have names. There are cultivars, [Bourbon, 74110] & hybrid coffees [Ababuna] available. Ethiopian Landrace are coffees that have come from the coffee forests. They are domesticated, locally adapted traditional varieties.
